Terrorism in Yugoslavia

The initiative to abolish the law on the special court for KLA crimes is a well-designed plan of Kosovo President Hashim Thaci and "his band."

This has been stated by the chairman of the Serbian National Assembly's Committee on Kosovo and Metohija, Milovan Decun, who added that their plan was to send a message to the international community that they could destabilize the situation in Kosovo if they were indicted for the crimes committed by the KLA ("Kosovo Liberation Army").

Kosovo Liberation Army veterans said they will launch a petition calling for the law governing the new Specialist Chambers, set up to try former KLA members, to be changed because it is “discriminatory”.

"We are one nation with two sovereign states. Both of our states have one dream, they have one goal, integration into Euro-Atlantic institutions," Thaci said at a ceremony marking 105 years since the proclamation of independence of Albania, and Albanian National Flag Day, Beta has reported.

D.T. had a secret warrant issued against him.

This was announced by the Serbian Government Office for Kosovo and Metohija (KiM), which assessed that the arrest was the consequence of "a political diktat."

NEW YORK - UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called on Kosovo leaders to exercise restraint in statements about the special court set up to try war crimes committed by the so-called Kosovo Liberation Army, noting the court's significance for serving justice to the victims of the Kosovo conflict.

After Hashim Thaci criticized the international community for failing to live up to its promises, the EU, the US and the UK say he is the one to blame.

Pristina’s Supreme Court upheld the verdict convicting ten ex-members of the Kosovo Liberation Army, including former security chief and ambassador Sylejman Selimi, of crimes against civilians during the 1998-99 conflict.

Investigative journalist Parim Olluri said he suspected his work was the reason why he was attacked on Wednesday in Pristina.

He has received medical treatment for minor body injuries following the assault outside his home in the Kosovo capital.

He later told Pristina-based TV station Dukagjini that he believes the assault was a consequence of his work as journalist.

A new boulevard in Belgrade will be named in honour of Yugoslav Army soldiers killed in a Kosovo Liberation Army ambush in 1998, which Serbia considers a war crime.
